About this event
Newquay bookshop Clemo Books opened in November 2023 and is preparing to celebrate their first Independent Bookshop Week, Saturday 15 – Saturday 22 June.
Book worms can meet Tracey Williams, author of much acclaimed Adrift: The Curious Tale of The Lego Lost at Sea, who will be signing copies of her book and trying out bookselling for herself on Saturday 15 June, 10:30am until 12:30pm.
Children and young people will also be able to join in with the celebrations and take part in the Clemo Books Young People’s Poetry Competition. Inspired by visiting author Tracey Williams’ beachcombing habits, the brief for the poetry competition is ‘found’ and youngsters have the chance to win gift vouchers. The winning poem will be displayed in the book shop window for people in Newquay to read.
The bookshop will also be staying open for longer on Saturday 15 June with a special late night shopping event to mark the celebratory week. Bubbly will be served with every book purchased as a way of thanking customers for their support since the independent bookshop opened over 6 months ago.
Clemo Books can be found opposite Costa Coffee in Newquay on the corner of Bank Street and Beachfield Avenue. The address is 33b Bank Street, Newquay, Cornwall, TR7 1DJ.
